- About Me
- Became first interested in photography, in the early sixties, when my neighbour showed me his darkroom in the attic.
All black and white till our departure to Canada.
Once established in Canada I slowly picked up the hobby again.
And encouraged when in 1985 Photo Life published a portfolio "Winter Scenes".
Work related moves, with the whole family, did cause interruptions in pursuing this hobby.
But now as a grandfather, retired and "living the good life", I hope to pick-up where I left off.
- My Equipment
- Some older Nikon FE's for film with a number of lenses
and misc. goodies, gathering dust in de closet.
Darkroom equipment.
And although never a true believer in digital photography, I have been converted and use a Nikon D70s with a standard an two zoom tele lenses.
